Officially Appointing Respawn Studio President as Head of DICE LA Team and a Huge Project on the Way
Certainly, with the new year, there is significant movement in terms of positions and changes by several companies, and this is evidenced by what was revealed today by EA, specifically by Vince Zampella, the president of Respawn Entertainment, acquired by EA two years ago. There were indications that the team could become more than just a partner with EA.
This was further confirmed today through the exciting details mentioned by Vince Zampella, head of Respawn Entertainment, in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, where he officially announced his new role as head of Dice LA, the parent team of several previous game series such as Battlefield, Star Wars Battlefront, and Mirror’s Edge.
He will be the general overseer of Respawn Entertainment studio and at the same time the head of the new Dice LA team. However, his primary focus will be on the new team, as he expressed his desire to restructure the team and have it move away from the original Dice studio in Stockholm, Sweden.
It is confirmed that workshops will be crucial for this team as its name and logo will be changed, and it will embark on a very large project that is not yet to be detailed, but it will definitely be a completely new title. Therefore, Vince Zampella will be leading another team after his previous experiences with the Medal of Honor series and founding Infinity Ward, the creator of the Call of Duty series.
Before leaving Activision several years ago to establish Respawn Entertainment and join EA to deliver games like Titanfall, Apex Legends, and recently Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, he is now embarking on a new adventure that will undoubtedly be different. Best regards.
